JACK LUDLAM: "RELIC"

About The Artist

For the past five years, Jack Ludlam's interest in the small community of craftsmen and craftswomen around the world has grown rapidly. The inspiration he gained from these "makers" (those who work with their hands) led Jack to engage in traditional film photography rather than digital processes. Support from his family enabled him to purchase his first film camera, a Hasselblad 500cm. In 2013, Jack graduated from Regis University with a BA in Visual Arts (emphasis in analog photography). The practice and tangibility of shooting with film, working in the dark room and producing photographs with his hands inspired Jack and allowed him to create his own techniques while celebrating the handmade artisan process.
